Our Fees

An initial phone consult is free, so if you have a legal problem don’t hesitate to get in touch and we’ll be happy to discuss your situation and how we may help.

If, after an initial consult, you choose to instruct us, then the following approach to fees will generally apply, but we won’t try to sell you our services unless we genuinely believe they may be of assistance.

Unlike most firms, at Haven Lawyers, most work is quoted on a project basis which has the following advantages:

1. Clients know what the final cost of services will be. There are no surprise solicitor costs.
2. It improves communications, because clients don’t need to worry about the cost of every phone call or query they may have.
3. It allows everyone to concentrate on the job at hand instead of constantly eyeing the clock.
4. It builds trust, because clients know that there is no incentive on our part to waste time to run up costs, which can be a perceived problem with hourly rate charging.

Of course fixed quotations only cover Haven Lawyers fees, they do not cover the costs of disbursements nor where the scope of work changes or increases.

Naturally, if a client prefers to be invoiced on the basis of an hourly rate, we will be more than happy to do so.

Regardless of whether fixed fees are quoted or an hourly rate will be charged, you should find our rates are very reasonable and more than competitive with other legal firms.
